Olivia Dunne, also known as Livvy, is a prominent American artistic gymnast and social media influencer who has made significant strides in her athletic career and brand partnerships.
Dunne first qualified as a junior international elite in 2014, becoming the youngest athlete in the U.S. to achieve this status. Her talent led her to earn a spot on the USA National Team in 2017, culminating in her selection to represent the United States at The City of Jesolo Trophy in Italy.
In July 2023, Dunne launched “The Livvy Fund” in partnership with LSU’s official NIL collective, Bayou Traditions. This initiative aims to create more opportunities for LSU female student-athletes in the name, image and likeness (NIL) space.
With more than 15 million followers across various social media platforms, Dunne has had numerous endorsement deals. Vuori, Motorola and American Eagle are some of the brands that have endorsed Dunne. In May, she signed a “multimillion-dollar deal” deal with Passes, a leading content creator platform designed to help creators diversify their revenue streams.
In August, Dunner starred in Nautica’s fall 2024 campaign. “Nautica perfectly aligns with my lifestyle because it values confidence, versatility and style,” she said in February, when the brand named her an ambassador.
